Majority are following the guidelines as you rightly highlight, it's a minority, I think the concern is the minority might encourage the majority to do the same.

I get that and really I think it's the ****s sunbathing etc. that they need to clamp down on. The majority are being sensible.

So you are doing your own thing, and fook everyone else, exactly as I expected - We have a population of around 70 Million, and you always get one. Let's all play by Chiefs rules, get a dog and go to the beach....


Which as long as I'm nowhere near anyone else what's the issue?

The problem with going out to parks and country walks etc is that a lot of these places have gates that you need to push or fences you have to climb over at styles, etc. When this happens then we're risking spreading it further as the virus can live on these surfaces for over 72 hours. It doesn't matter if you're wearing gloves or not if you have touched your face or covered your mouth to cough and you are unknowingly infected. Then, if people have travelled somewhere, everyone who touches that gate or fence then risks taking it back to multiple communities. At least when you are local it slows down the spread. It sucks for me as I live in a built up area, but it is what it is. This is the first time I wish I still lived back in rural Scotland in years.

We’re a nation of busy body ****s.

I saw the pics of people sunbathing in the park, and what? They all looked to be well spaced apart and respecting the social distancing advice. If people gather in groups then have the coppers send them home. But people minding their own business sat in a park? Don’t get it.
 
It's worth bearing in mind that people's mental health is every bit as important as their physical health. There has to be a balance struck somewhere, and to be fair, the government does appear to know that.

Also, this is Britain. Troops on the street? No ****ing thanks. Troops helping out with hospitals, haulage, logistics etc? By all means.
 
Feel very lucky to live where I do ... we can access a bridle path at the top of the hill we live on and there is then a network through fields and woods and you can see other walkers long before they get anywhere close and take a different path ... we did a 6 miler with the dog last Thursday but tend to average between 3 and 4 <ok>

Yeah but some of them had what appeared to be wine which makes it different.

We should all be forced to do Joe Wicks’ PT session from 9-9:30 every day and be otherwise chained to our sofas.
